The limited dimensions of any home area pose a challenge if we want to create a functional and modern space. These models of small and contemporary kitchens will give you ideas and ingenious solutions for that reduced space.
While tiny houses or apartments have unique charm and coziness, this space can be a disappointment when it comes to the kitchen. Fortunately, there are endless options to get the most out of that space that doesn’t quite convince you. It’s all about working on your area, whether a single wall, a small corner, or a «U» shape.
The best thing about a small kitchen space is that the cost of new construction or remodeling is much less than a large one. Which means you can afford to choose some high-end finishes.
Let’s get to it!
Five ideas for a small kitchen
1.- Kitchen design with peninsula
A kitchen with a peninsula is the perfect solution for small spaces. Here the kitchen is integrated with the dining room or passage areas. As you can see in the images, both sides of the peninsula form a perfect workspace with paneled cabinets, a cooking area, an appliance area, or a dining counter.[ish_gallery images=»7779,7780,7781″ use_captions=»image» columns=»3″]
2.- Kitchen model with «L» shaped countertop
The «L» shaped countertop is ideal for small kitchens, because apart from taking advantage of the space with this good shape, it leaves one of the sides free to put a breakfast bar as in the first photo and thus completes the perfect triangle with an unobstructed view of the place. The second photo shows how the «L» shaped countertop blends harmoniously with the rest of our home.[ish_gallery images=»7784,7783″ use_captions=»image» columns=»1″]
3.- With a single front
The kitchen with a single front will adapt perfectly to narrow and elongated spaces. The kitchen is open to the living or dining room and is distributed with all its elements in a line, resulting in a visually lighter area. This option is convenient when the kitchen is integrated into a single environment combined with the living room or dining room.[ish_gallery images=»7805,7806″ use_captions=»image» columns=»2″]
4.- Kitchen with oven tower
If you want to make the most of your space and make it look aesthetic and modern, do not hesitate to include an oven tower in which you have the oven and microwave. But also, as you see in the image, you can have in its sides divisions to gain more storage space. This way, you will achieve more ergonomics in your kitchen and generate a uniform view of your space.
5.- Kitchen with pantry tower
This option is the perfect solution to make your space functional.
